Darlin’
I
was hoping that we could pretend
and
make believe that we
could
still live happily
and
start again
Seems
like you and I
we’ve
been caught up in your world of lies
I
kept believing you
could
start anew
and
be a friend
Well,
I’ve got something I wanted to tell you
and
it’s the last thing I thought I could say
but
I think I must go there anyway
Goodbye
How
do you say goodbye
Do
I just look you in the eye
shake
your hand, wish you well
after
all this time
I
never wanted for goodbye
Don’t
let go
I
was devoted to your heart and soul
and
then we took a turn
and
I had to learn
what
I tried not to know
Seems
like yesterday
I’d
give the world just to hear you say
a
simple whisper of a word or two
like
I love you
It
breaks my heart to see it end this way
Goodbye
How
do you say goodbye
Do
I just look you in the eye
shake
your hand, wish you well
after
all this time, all this time
I
never wanted for goodbye
Can
it ever be the same
Goodbye
Did
we lose more than we gained
There’s
nowhere to hide, nowhere to hide
baby,
I feel it inside
as
my heart cries out your name
Goodbye,
goodbye
How
do you say goodbye, goodbye, oh baby
Do
I just look you in the eye
shake
your hand, wish you well
after
all this time
I
never wanted for goodbye
Darlin’
I
was hoping that we could pretend
Goodbye
